My deep concolences to the family of Paul Ilyinsky. He was a gentleman of the old school, no question about that. I had the privilege of meeting him at a wedding here some years ago.

While I never had the opportunity of meeting him, all I ever heard from those who did was what a fine gentleman he was. The world is a little bit poorer, a little less warm for the loss of such a wonderful man.
